I forgot about another extension- I have a laminated bee that after they've had a turn in the middle they compose a 4 beat pattern using ta, ti-ti and rest. They then pick a friend or two and perform the pattern as an ostinato during the song while the game continues. If you did the drum and the ostinato you'd have some awesome partwork going on!! :) Love the prospect of combing our ideas! Now, just to remember it after I present ta, ti-ti and rest this fall!Amy Abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122184843941987903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7013471045320036116.post-3248037993235320212012-08-21T21:23:24.760-06:002012-08-21T21:23:24.760-06:00Thanks for the shout-out!
When we play Bee Bee B...Thanks for the shout-out! <br /><br />When we play Bee Bee Bumblebee at my school, when a student gets out, they get to play the beat on the drum. I remind the students to play every time "Buzzy" lands in a "flower." The students hold their hands above their heads like an open flower for the bee to land in. One more chance for them to play the drum and demonstrate beat!<br /><br />Also, a few years ago a colleague made a bee beat chart that we later used for rhythm tracking. It was on a transparency and she added one antenna for quarter notes and two antennae for eighth notes. It was a pretty clever concept.Alisha Gabrielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250119987251108380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7013471045320036116.post-92172369579509927752012-08-21T21:10:01.967-06:002012-08-21T21:10:01.967-06:00Awe, thank you! And I'm glad it made sense. ...Awe, thank you! And I'm glad it made sense. You could always make it a weaving game too, but I do that with "Busy, Buzzy, Buzy Bee'- where all the students are trees and the student with the bee puppet flies around the trees and has to land on a tree on the final word of the song (a good assessment for pacing/anticipation and inner hearing)Amy Abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122184843941987903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7013471045320036116.post-77179939781503484362012-08-21T20:35:40.581-06:002012-08-21T20:35:40.581-06:00Makes total sense.

My game is basically a "duck, duck...Hi Robin!<br /><br />My game is basically a "duck, duck, goose" game: I have a bee puppet that a child uses as they go around the circle (the class is in a seated circle). On the word "out" they tag the person they are behind, that person chases them one time around the circle and the taggie becomes the new tagger. Hope that makes sense!<br /><br />Amy :)Amy Abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122184843941987903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7013471045320036116.post-35778267116080073262012-08-21T09:38:17.856-06:002012-08-21T09:38:17.856-06:00These are great!
